Karbon Women's Crystal Ski Pant

Description & Features

The Karbon Women's Crystal Side Zip Ski Pant is an insulated stretch pant built for alpine racers who need warmth, weather protection, and easy on-and-off functionality at the racecourse. Full side zips allow the pant to be removed over ski boots, while Quadra Stretch fabric and 3D shaping provide the mobility needed for skiing, course inspection, and race-day movement.

Karbonite 20,000 waterproof protection, fully sealed seams, and integrated snow cuffs help keep winter weather out, while 60 gsm Thermolite Active insulation provides lightweight warmth without excessive bulk. A women's-specific stretch fit, removable suspenders, adjustable waistband, and reinforced lower-leg construction make the Karbon Women's Crystal Side Zip Ski Pant a versatile layer for training, competition, and long days on the mountain.

Construction & Technology

Karbonite 20,000 Waterproof Protection

Karbonite is Karbon's waterproofing system designed to create a durable barrier against exterior moisture while maintaining breathability. The Crystal uses Karbonite 20,000 protection with fully sealed seams to help keep racers protected from snow and moisture during changing alpine conditions.

Quadra Stretch & 3D Shaping

Quadra Stretch fabric combines with 3D shaping to allow the pant to move naturally with the skier. The flexible construction supports an athletic skiing stance and unrestricted movement during course inspection, training, and race-day activity.

Thermolite Active Insulation

Thermolite Active insulation provides lightweight thermal protection while maintaining the mobility required for active skiing. The Crystal uses 60 gsm insulation to balance warmth and low bulk, making it practical for layering over race suits and other performance apparel.

Full Side-Zip Race Construction

Full-length side zippers make the Crystal particularly useful for alpine racers by allowing the pants to be put on or removed without taking off ski boots. Racers can wear the insulated pants over a race suit while waiting, inspecting the course, or riding lifts, then remove them efficiently before a run.

Women's-Specific Stretch Fit

The Crystal combines a women's-specific fit with stretch fabric and 3D shaping to provide a close, comfortable profile without restricting movement. The adjustable waistband and removable suspenders provide additional options for dialing in a secure race-day fit.

Race-Ready Lower-Leg Protection

Double-fabric scuff guards reinforce areas exposed to repeated contact with ski boots and edges, while integrated snow cuffs use snap closures and gripper elastic to create a secure interface around the boot. These durable details help the pant withstand repeated use throughout training and race days.
